I just came in for a quick break working on 67 Yenko Camaro 706. There is NO tag on this car, nor was there any. But I did find a number of real cool things breaking this one down. Like the original spring tags on the rear, the original rear shocks, crayon "K" on the rear seat bulkhead, and a ton of the original Royal Plum paint. The original blowproof, and headers, hood pins, that are WAY different than the ones you get today, and the original traction bars. The way the tach was mounted on this ride was different than others I have seen as well....BKH

I can't say why the door jam tag has YS-7041, but I can tell you why the list has the syntax as '741'.

The '67 list that we have on this site basically came from two sources, a list of cars sold by a dealer other than Yenko whereby Don kept track of commission payments due, and a list that was attached to a letter from Don to the NHRA.

The commission list is handwritten, and shows the stock numbers as '741', the list attached to the letter to the NHRA is typed but does not show stock numbers. So, my point here is that we've seen Yenko list stocknumbers both ways, the formal version 'YS-X0XX' and the shorthand version 'XXX'. However, in my experience the formal version is generally on typed documents, and the shorthand version is generally on handwritten documents. Therefore, I would not expect to see the shorthand version on a door jam tag.
